A Visual- The Insertion Process


Insertion Day

In a couple of hours, my partner and I will be heading to the clinic for my insertion appointment. I'm feeling a little nervous this morning about the experience, and I recognise that most of the fear comes from not knowing what to expect from the insertion and how I will react to having a small foreign object inside of me. I am still confident in my decision to try out the Copper 'T', and these blog entries are helping my keep track of my process- not to mention keeping me centred. I'll be blogging again later today with updates about the insertion appointment, as well as the initial feelings and physical reactions I may or may not experience this afternoon.




For those of you who are interested, here is a short animated video of the insertion process.

  1. Rachael,

    What a brilliant journal. I wish you all the best in exploring this option. I am looking forward to hearing how this journey goes for you. I may investigate something similar too. I can't do hormones anymore either... just not a sensible option for me.

    Thanks for pointing me in this direction.
